TRAVELING - NATIONAL MONUMENTS
Perhaps the most famous US national monument is that of a stone woman - that Statue of Liberty firmly planted on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, a gift from the people of France as a memorial to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the singing of the Declaration of Independence.
The following sonnet by Emma Lazarus titled 'The New Colossus' is inscribed on the pedestal supporting our Mother of Exiles:
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land,
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles, From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome, her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
